Per the January 19 edition of "MIS Week", the "The Network" column,
page 4:

"Modem maker Bizcomp is looking for the worst phone lines in America.
It wants to test, in the harshest real-world conditions they can find,
a new line of 2400bps modems, which, they hope to claim, can handle
bad connections better than the competition.  Sites chosen for testing
may get a free modem.  If your phone lines are really bad, find a
better one and call (408) 733-7800."

Surely someone(s) on the net should be able to qualify.  .
